An old father living alone in the country wanted to plant his pepper garden, but the ground was too hard and he was too old to do the work. His only son who use to help him was in prison for robbing a bank.

The old man wrote a letter to his son and mentioned his situation:

"Dear Jake, Ive been very depressed lately because it looks like I wont be able to plant my peppers this year. You know how much your mother loved planting peppers this time of year, but Im just getting too old to be digging up a garden plot. I know if you were here my troubles would have been over. I know you would have been happy to dig the plot for me." Love, Dad

A few days later he received a letter from his son:

"Dear Dad, Dont dig up that garden! Thats where I buried the THINGS!" Love, Jake

At 4am the next morning, FBI agents and local police arrived and dug up the entire area looking for the THINGS. They apologized to the old man after not finding anything and left.

The next day the old man received another letter from his son.

"Dear Dad, Happy Fathers Day! Go ahead and plant your peppers now. Thats the best I could do under the circumstances." Love, Jake
